Hi Guys,

I got the pickups earthed and strings are on

I tried to intonate it but it sounds awful.

I adjusted the action and it looks pretty good

I tuned it basically to a clip on tuner and then checked the intontation on the 12th fret and each time I pressed down on the string behind the 12th fret it seemed it was on the flat side but the saddles are wound all the way forward so I think you have to shorten the length but there is no adjustment.

On the video they end up too sharp and he winds the saddles back where you have plenty of adjustment to bring it back to the same note octave equivalent (I think?)

I think I must be doing something wrong.

I wound the strings too tight but didn't want to go too far and break them

There was some awful static thru the amp and I checked all my earths and connections then changed the power cord over and it cleaned up nicely.

I think all the controls work O.K. and the neck seems to have straightend up also.

Adjusted the pick ups to about 3mm below the strings

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks heaps,

Alan
